Sarah Alexander Biography
Sarah Alexander is particularly familiar to television audiences for such award-winning series as PEOPLE LIKE US, ARMSTRONG & MILLER and three series of SMACK THE PONY, the all-female comedy sketch show. Sarah knew that she wanted to act from a very young age: ?But I kept it quiet. My father was a television director and producer, working on documentaries and current affairs programmes including ?Panorama?, and I didn?t think he?d find acting a sensible option. But as soon as I?d finished my A? Levels I got on a train to Edinburgh and that was it.? She continues: ?Having started in theatre, for a long time I wanted to be a classical actress. But I?ve always loved making people laugh - at school I was quite mischievous ? and bit by bit I found myself working more and more in comedy. Then I met up with Ben Miller and Alexander Armstrong and we started doing lots of stuff for the Paramount Channel. Meanwhile I appeared in DROP THE DEAD DONKEY and RED DWARF and I eventually ended up as part of the regular team in SMACK THE PONY.?
